Mission Statement
Patient Empowerment Network’s mission is to offer trusted information to empower anyone impacted by cancer, through health equity, health literacy and shared decision-making.
About This Cause
Patient Empowerment Network (PEN) envisions all people impacted by cancer, worldwide, having fair access to the best help and support needed, regardless of their background or circumstances. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to improving health literacy and treatment outcomes for cancer patients and care partners at every step of their journey. Our programs include free digital literacy skills training and online resources covering diagnosis and testing, treatment, clinical trials, financing, recovery, long-term survivorship, and everything in between. PEN's evidence-based programs provide patients with tools to feel activated and connected with resources that help overcome barriers in accessing care and bridging gaps among underrepresented communities. What differentiates Patient Empowerment Network from other cancer advocacy groups is that we take patient education a step further; we educate, then ACTIVATE patients and their care partners to become co-decision makers with their healthcare teams. By insisting on the most current and personalized care available, empowered patients achieve better treatment outcomes.
